Chapter 769 Yi Xun died in battle! Run, Li Xin!
May 18th, the 14th year of King Qin’s reign.
In the south of Julu County, a group of soldiers and horses held the banner of the Qin army and marched hard.
At the position of the central army, Li Xin read the general order in his hand and snorted coldly: "Chang'an Jun still has some conscience."
"If Chang'an Jun also endured the revenge of the king's assassination, , I will definitely scold you when I see Lord Chang'an!"
The messenger's eyes were blank and he did not dare to listen to Li Xin's words. He continued to speak: "The messenger from the DPRK and China has arrived in the army, ordering our army to withdraw quickly." He refused Wang Ling for the time being, but the coach thought that the delay could not last more than a few days. "Therefore, General Li was asked to speed up."
Li Xin looked at him. Full of confidence and certainty: "Report to the coach."
"Just say that the last general will be able to command all his troops!"
"Yes." Li Xin's eyes became more serious: "According to the general's judgment, the attitude of the county magistrates in Daijun and Zhucheng is a bit weird."
"When the general attacked the city, the various counties and counties The order is still firmly defended, and the cities will rush to support each other. "
"At the beginning of the general's journey south through Dai County, the journey was difficult, and all the cities repeatedly sent out coalition forces to intercept the general."
"But after the last general spoke to the enemy general in front of the formation about his intention to use the road to go south, he never saw the enemy blocking him."
"The last general thought that Zhao Gongzijia had probably taken control of Dai County and could attack him at any time. It is possible to reestablish the banner of the Zhao State and integrate the old Zhao State’s strength to start a war again.”
"Commander, please be more careful!"
The ordering soldier immediately handed over his hand: "Wei!"
Li Xin handed the order to the soldiers to keep, and shouted in a deep voice: "Pass this order to the general!"< br>
"The whole army marches urgently!"
Nearly 30,000 Qin troops set off again, galloping towards the main battlefield at a speed that ordinary generals could not understand!
Just as Li Xin's troops were on their way in a hurry, all the Yan troops had received Yan Dan's general orders and were embarking on their return journey.
The war also started!
Thirteen miles southeast of Julu City.
"Advance the left wing and attack the enemy on the flank!" Yi Xun roared angrily: "Let me pierce the flank of the Qin army."
"Kill and scatter the Qin army!"
The infantry of the Yan army on Yi Xun's left left the formation and launched an attack from the northwest of the battlefield towards the central part of the Qianghuai army located in the south of the battlefield.
Only the Yan army on Yi Xun's left had four thousand troops, while the entire Qiang Huai army only had more than seven thousand troops!
However, Qiang Huai showed no fear on his face and shouted in a deep voice: "Order!"
"The front continued to contain the middle part of Yi Xun, and the two troops on the left and right penetrated Yi Xun from the left and right sides. Move to the middle!"
"The infantry in the middle join forces with the rear to block the enemy's right, and the knights in the middle follow my general to block Yi Xun's left!"
While shouting, Qiang Huai clamped his horse's belly and led eight hundred knights to charge towards the more than 4,000 Yan troops on Yi Xun's left!
Holding the bow in hand, Qiang Huai stared at Yi Xun's left side with his eyes, silently estimating the distance.
Suddenly, Qiang Huai drew his bow and nocked an arrow, shouting: "Hold the bow! nock an arrow!"
"Target left front, throw!"
"Let go ! ”
When giving the order, Qiang Huai raised his short bow and fixed his eyes on a leader of two to five hundred Yan troops, letting his fingers loosen at will.
"Boom~"
The arrow flew away from the string, crossed a distance of tens of feet, and stabbed firmly into the eye socket of the 2500-year-old leader of the Yan Army!
Qiang Huai didn't even look at the result of his battle. He extended his right hand back like an ape's arm, took out another arrow, took a brief glance with one eye, and shot another arrow.
This time, the strings are like thunder!
"Boom!!!"
Following Qiang Huai, eight hundred bowstrings exploded at the same time, and eight hundred arrows shot into the sky, and then splashed towards Yi Xun's men!
"Raise your shields! Quick! Disperse the formation and move forward, everyone raise their shields!"
"My arms! My arms!"
"Speed up and turn left, the only way is to Only by annihilating this Qin army can our military be safe!”
One round of arrows only caused the death and injury of more than a hundred Yan army soldiers, but it caused a huge blow to the morale of the Yan army.
Because they have been fighting in the north all year round and know very well what kind of battle they are about to face!
After Qiang Huai shot four arrows in a row, he tightened the reins without looking back, and shouted: "Quickly go to the right!"
Yi Xun's left side began to run towards the east side. However, the knights under Qiang Huai's command used the speed of their horses to reach the east side of Yi Xun's headquarters at a faster speed, seizing the position on the right!
Looking at the infantry of the Yan army close at hand, the corners of Qiang Huai's mouth turned up slightly: "The knights on the left each shot the enemy!"
"Let go!"
The knight on the left immediately drew his bow and nocked an arrow, and sent an arrow full of expectations toward his favorite one.
“No!!!”
“An arrow hit my leg! Don’t step on your forehead! Don’t step on...”
“Speed up! Hurry up! Go to Turn northeast and be sure to restrict the movements of the Qin army’s knights!”
Most archers hold their bows with their left hand and pull the string with their right hand, so the attack angles of most arch knights are only in the front and left areas.
As Yan Jun often dealt with Hun knights, he knew very well that only by placing himself on the right side of Qiang Huai's troops could Qiang Huai's troops be unable to draw their bows and shoot arrows, and break the bad situation of being kited.
But, it is easier said than done!
No matter how hard Yi Xun's troops ran, they could not keep up with the speed of the war horses.
Under the personal leadership of Qiang Huai, only 800 knights held back more than 4,000 Yan troops on Yi Xun's left side, and continued to kill them!
Seeing this scene from afar, Yi Xun felt anxious and shouted: "Pass this general's order!"
"The knights from the middle came out to entangle Qin Duwei Qiang Huai's troops and liberate the left troops of our army. Horse."
"The chariot left the formation, waiting for an opportunity to cooperate with the knights to encircle Qin Duwei Qiang Huai!"
The middle of Yi Xun's formation split, and the two chariots slowly accelerated and finally rushed out. The Yan army's military formation rushed towards Qiang Huai's troops.
There were thousands of knights on the flanks of the chariot, galloping towards the right side of Qiang Huai's troops!
Qiang Huai was not surprised but overjoyed: "I thought it would be a surprise to be able to capture four thousand infantry with eight hundred knights." "But I never thought that General Yan would have surprises waiting for me!"
Although he is a captain, as a veteran who has followed Ying Chengyu on many expeditions, Qiang Huai no longer regards himself as a point that needs to be protected, but as a point that needs to be protected. A very important war resource in the battlefield.
At the cost of his own safety and that of 800 knights, he implicated 4,000 Yan Army infantry, 1,000 Yan Army knights and two Yan Army chariots.
It’s simply not worth it!
Waiting patiently until the Yan army knights and chariots were far away from the middle part of Yi Xun, Qiang Huai shouted excitedly: "Send orders to the left and right troops to take advantage of the opportunity to attack the middle part of Yi Xun!"
"Soldiers, entangle Yi Xun. On the left, fight for the opportunity for the Paozes!”
Under Qiang Huai’s extreme pull, although Yi Xun’s troops were more than twice as strong as Qiang Huai’s, Yi Xun’s troops were unable to break through. Qiang Huai's interception even caused heavy losses!
Looking at the large number of Yan army corpses scattered on the battlefield, Yi Xun's heart was bleeding.
Looking at the flags of the Qin army's generals that were gradually shrouded in darkness, Yi Xun shouted: "The front part retreats and rests, the rear part moves forward with fire!"
"All the troops fought all night!"
"The Qin army is certainly capable, but after all, the Qin army is outnumbered. In order to pull our troops, we have to do more galloping."
"The advantage is still with me!"< br>
"Even attrition! Our army can also defeat the Qin army!"
The torches were lit, and balls of flames rose up.
But there were many more torches than Yi Xun expected!
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught the fire dragon made of torches in the northwest. Yi Xun panicked, but he forced himself to sneer: "The Qin army in this battle only has a few thousand people. How can there be such a large army?" "
"The Qin army put a lot of torches on the poles to confuse our troops?"
"Huh~"
"This strategy has already been rejected by the Chu army. The news of the defeat spread throughout the world, An Neng deceived the general!"
"Every unit obeys the order and moves forward!"
Looking at Yi Xun's troops advancing towards the headquarters in formation, Qiang Huai blinked: "Yi Xun, Captain of Yan, are you drunk?"
Our army of nearly 30,000 reinforcements was marching in plain sight. As a result, instead of fleeing, the Yan army took the initiative to attack our army!
As expected of a subordinate of Prince Yan Dan, he is so brave!
Taking the long beryllium from his own soldiers, Qiang Huai shouted excitedly: "Soldiers!"
"Our friendly forces have appeared, and Yan Shu actually dares to charge at our army!"
"What should we do?"
More than six thousand remaining soldiers shouted in unison: "Fight!"< br>
Qiang Huai laughed loudly: "Beat the decisive drum!"
"March!"
Qiang Huai took the lead and personally led the Chinese army to meet the Yan army.
Head-on collision!
Under Qiang Huai's deliberate command, the Qin and Yan armies quickly became entangled as soon as they engaged in battle.
When Yi Xun discovered that the fire dragon in the distance was not an illusion created by a pole, but a real Qin army of nearly 30,000 people, the Yan army had no room to avoid it!
Yi Xun could only watch helplessly as Li Xin led the Great Qin Northern Corps to slam into the rear of Yi Xun, which was the most vulnerable!
"The rear of our army is broken! The rear of our army is in chaos!"
"Captain, our army has been completely surrounded by the Qin army! What should be done, Captain, please tell me quickly!"
>
"Don't kill anymore, please surrender!"
Suddenly surrounded by the Qin army, the Yan army's already low morale instantly fell to the bottom!
A large number of Yan troops asked to surrender on the spot, and even the Yan troops who were still fighting had panic written on their faces.
Qiang Huai laughed heartily: "Yanshu! Open your eyes wide to see who is outnumbered and who is outnumbered now!"
"Our army's reinforcements have arrived, soldiers, kill the enemy!"
< br>Qiang Huai was about to lead the central part to pierce through the Yan army, when he saw that five chariots had cut a bloody path through the Yan army, and laid out a red carpet of flesh and blood all the way to the front of Qiang Huai.
Behind the red carpet, Li Xin personally led the gurgling cavalry to charge!
Qiang Huai hurriedly handed over his hand: "Thank you Captain Li for traveling thousands of miles to help!"
"After this battle, I will hold a big banquet to express my gratitude!"
Li Xin casually returned the gift and said: "Qiang Captain does not need to thank you."
"Qiang will be needed in the follow-up of this battle. Captain, please be careful.”
Qiang Huai was stunned: “What do you mean, Captain Li?”
Li Xin said with a smile: “My troops came from an expedition and needed a rest.”
"Now that the Yan army's formation has been broken and their morale is gone, there is no need for our army to fight anymore."
"This general will lead our troops in Paoze to set up camp and rest immediately. The remaining Yan army will have to worry about the Qiang captain." "
Qiang Huai hurriedly said: "Our army has blocked the Yan army for several days, but the victory of this battle can only be determined by the arrival of Lieutenant Li."
" The killing will naturally be left to Lieutenant Li's command. "
The most profitable stage in the war is definitely the pursuit stage.
Now that Li Xin's troops have finished the most difficult battle, but they do not participate in the pursuit, it is equivalent to doing the work but not receiving wages.
If word of this gets out, Qiang Huai will no longer be a human being!
Li Xin smiled and raised a head: "With this merit, it is enough."
"The order given to our department by the commander-in-chief is to rush to the rescue of all ministries, and military merit is only secondary. "
Looking at Yi Xun's dead head, Qiang Huai finally felt a little relieved and said immediately: "Since it is the commander's order, I shouldn't say anything."
"Our military camp is five miles southeast. If Captain Li does not abandon it, he can lead his troops to directly enter our camp!"
Li Xin nodded slightly and said, "Thank you!"
Throwing Yi Xun's head to the soldiers, Li Xin walked away proudly without even looking at the defeated Yan army behind him.
